I've been taking over the counter sleep
aids for about a year now, and I'm
obviously having a problem. The pills
don't really work anymore and I've finally
decided to quit. The problem is, I can't
get to sleep anymore.
I've always had a problem with being
anxious, and since I haven't been taking
the pills, these problems show themselves
more clearly now when I try to go to
sleep. My legs always feel tingly and
tense and it honestly get so annoying that
I keep clenching and unclenching them
until it gets so uncomfortable that I have
to get up and walk around. I think this is
called restless legs disorder or something
like that, and it only started when the
sleep aids stopped working.
I can't get to sleep, and I'm also broke
with no health insurance, so I can't go to
the doctor (I already have medical bills
because I tripped a few months ago and
busted my head). Is there anything I can
do to get to sleep, because I'm getting
pretty desperate? Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
